Making a Splash at State

For the second year in a row, Freshmen Joshua Muntifering and Hunter Brings got the chance to go to state for Swim and Dive. Muntifering went for the 200 Individual Medley and 100 Back, while Brings went for Diving. Muntifering finished 22 in the 200 IM and 23 in the 100 Back. Brings finished 18 in Diving.

At State, the boys were able to cheer each other on as they competed.

“It was a great bonding time with Josh Muntifering and Jordan Dick, who came as our manager,” said Brings. “It was just a fun experience.”

In the off-season, Muntifering and Brings are planning on doing a lot of training to prepare for the next Swim and Dive season.

“I swim with the Sea Devils, which is a club in St. Michael,” said Muntifering. “We swim 6 days a week.”

Brings takes a slightly different approach to training in the off-season.

“I haven’t done anything [in the off-season] in the past couple years,” said Brings. “I’ve only played baseball. This year I’m looking into a couple clubs, one in Indiana and one in the Twin Cities.”

Something Muntifering and Brings have in common is the inspiration from their older sisters, who are 2013 graduates.

“I watched my sister for a couple years. I think is why I’m good at it,” said Brings. “As I watched her, I picked up on things that she did. It helped a lot after watching her for like four years.”

Muntifering and Brings’ goals are set high for the years to come. After not meeting their goals this year, they are determined to achieve them in the next three years. By Muntifering’s senior year, he hopes to make top eight, while Brings’ goal for senior year is to make top three.

Not many people know this about me, but I'm a twin. I like fast bikes and slow walks over hot coals. I got kicked out of youth soccer for setting fire to the post-game snacks.
